It has been stated several times in this thread alone.
To find pending and approval dates call the NFA 304-616-4500 and provide them with your name, your dealers name, and your serial number.

Also, there is an "edit" button under your post so that you can change it.

Should be Dudash - Ohio. I'll double check when I have the form and can in hand tomorrow. </div></div>

Picked mine up today. 34 weeks including a form getting sent back for correction. Only delayed the process about a week. And yes, Nichole Dudash is the examiner for Ohio(her stamp says Nickie, sounds kinda hot)

Forgive my ignorance but how does a "trust" Form 4 differ from a normal purchase and are there advantages?

No CLEO sign-off, no fingerprint cards, and you can add people to the trust to keep them "legal" if they have access to a Form 1 or Form 4 item...like if you keep your SBR and can in a safe in your house, and go off and leave your safe unlocked, your wife technically has access to aforementioned items. If she is on the trust, no foul. If you purchased it as an individual, someone could get in trouble.

Those are three reasons I used to get a trust. I'm sure Graham will be by sometime to post the exact reasons with the exact wording
